Okatse Canyon

TIME : 2016/2/18 20:08:34

An exciting 700m-long walkway, new in 2014, projects from the edge of this 100m-deep canyon and culminates in a viewing platform that hangs right out over the middle. It's a 2km hike from the visitors centre near Zeda Gordi village, 42km northwest of Kutaisi. A jeep back to the visitors centre afterwards costs 15 GEL for five or six people.

Many people add on a visit to the nearby Kinchkha waterfall – a 7km jeep drive from the visitors centre (30 GEL per jeep round-trip) then a 2km (each way) walk. A round-trip taxi from Kutaisi costs around 60 GEL, and only a little more if combined with nearby Martvili .
